You're asking me if I could just give full access to your network drive to the "Everyone" account, because you don't know how to configure your access perms? Certainly, just a moment...... <clickety-click><tappa-tappa-tappity> ... that should take care of it for you. No, no problem. Bye. [Hangs up receiver but doesn't even move hand away from cradle. Waits five seconds. BRRRRRING! Pick up.] What? Your files? What, *all* of them? What, *completely* vanished? Yes, well, you do understand that when you say you want to give full access to your network drive to everyone in the world, that that really does mean *full* access? What, backups? I'll just check. [Long pause. Almost audible sound of nerves at breaking point at the far end of the phone line]. .... Well, maybe. Let's discuss your credit card details...... </BOFHMODE> ...full apologies to Simon Travaglia. <g> cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
